I have worked with Jay Totah for the past 16 yrs in either re-financing or obtaining a new loan. He has always made the process easy for me and my family, and he was fully transparent about the process which speaks to his character. I have used other lenders as well but always come back to Jay for his efficiency and attention to detail. I highly recommend Jay who is an honest hardworking lender. A rarity in this industry.

Jay stays on top of the loan process for you. We have used Jay several times over the past years for loans to purchase new commercial properties and to refinance commercial and personal properties.

With our latest loan poor Jay had to really stay on top of the loan processing people. The appraisal was turned in to the loan officer late, and had inaccurate content, this caused delay in the closing of the loan. We were worried about loosing our interest lock. Jay was able to work with the processor at the loan company to get outstanding questions answered quickly which allowed them to closed within the interest lock time frame.

I would recommend Jay Totah to anyone looking for a loan broker for commercial or personal properties.

My wife and I have known Jihad for almost twenty years now. He has helped us twice to refinance and numerous times with various types of advice. Jihad not only is extremely knowledgeable in his field of expertise but he's as honest and hardworking as the day is long ! We've had to work a few times with other loan advisors and mortgage brokers and that's when we absolutely realized how wonderful working with Jihad really is. Why ?
Because he believes in giving you the best possible service he possibly can- and it really shows ! He was very timely in providing the information we needed as well as very thorough. In addition, he's a really likeable guy, which makes dealing with the stress and complexities of dealing with refinancing that much easier. I highly recommend Jihad and his services. He will take great care of you !!

We have used Jihad's services for our home purchase and three refinancings
and would recommend him enthusiastically and without reservation.

Jihad is extremely patient -- even with people who are newcomers to the whole process.
In addition, he is responsive, thorough, ethical, and willing to "go the extra mile"
to find the best deal and to make it happen. Plus, he is a really nice person.
We could not ask for more!

We have referred several friends to him and will certainly use his services again in
future.
